The Hata three layer tablet press


HATA 3 layer tablet pressThree times the output, as well as automatic weight control of three separate tablet layers. That's the kind of production speed and quality you can expect when you run Hata's unique three-layer tablet press in an Elizabeth-Hata fully-automated system.

A patented sealed feed system, which includes special vacuum ports in front of each feed shoe, eliminates the possibility of cross-contamination and ensures ultra-clean tablet layer demarcation. A special cam design allows for first layer fill, first layer tamping, second layer fill, second layer tamping, third layer fill, pre-compression and main compression.

This three-layer tableting press is available with 45 stations to accommodate 1.500" O.D. dies, 55 stations for 1.187" O.D. dies or 71 stations for .945 O.D. dies.

This Hata Three Layer press is the ideal choice for pharmaceutical manufacturers who require flexibility for the development of layered tablets. This press can also be converted for core-coating tablet production.

Custom Mechanical Conversion for Core-Tableting
( Tablet within a Tablet Technology )

For research and development or full-scale production, the Hata 3-Layer Tableting Press can be customized to produce tablet within a tablet products. The Hata 3-Layer Press is the most flexible tableting press on the market which is capable of producing single layer, bi-layer, tri-layer, and with a custom mechanical assembly………core-tablets. For high speed, fully automated production of either shaped or round core-coated pharmaceutical tablets. This core tableting system utilizes a custom core feeding mechanism which delivers properly oriented cores to the Hata Press with dependability.

Instead of the traditional third feed shoe on the Hata 3-Layer Press, the Hata Core-Tableting System features an innovative mechanical assembly which uses a custom designed feeding apparatus and inverter wheel to orient the cores and deliver them to the press system.

The unique alignment mechanism leads to precision core feeding for both round or shaped tablets.
